Cameron said there was “no question” the situation would have been worse if the SRO had not engaged the shooter in an interview with The Post.

Cameron said they are still investigating a motive and it’s unclear whether the shooter knew the students who were shot.

Thank goodness Great Mills High School has the common sense to allow an armed school safety officer to protect their students. Clearly, the decisive action of the resource officer prevented this horrific event from being much, much worse.

The only fatality from the incident was the gunman, who died of his wounds at the hospital.
